St. John’s Public Cemetery to Be Closed in Two Weeks

Cabinet has agreed that the St. John’s Public Cemetery will be formally closed to new burials effective at the end of March 2026.

According to Thursday’s Cabinet Notes, the cemetery has reached capacity after many decades of service to the public.  Under the new arrangement, no new burials will be permitted at the cemetery. However, Cabinet has agreed that family members who have existing tombs or burial plots within the cemetery will continue to be allowed to inter relatives in those family tombs.
